The real stories from inside the F1 paddock

A new idea…

Sorry to be dull, but a chap has to eat and while you Internet browsers all like to get something for nothing, have you ever considered getting news from motorsport before everyone else does? You can get it, if you are willing to pay a relatively small sum for a regular news service that is not available free of charge, nor on the Internet. Joe Saward’s Business of Motorsport newsletter is a great resource to discover news about the sport – and what it actually means – long before you read about on the normal websites and bottom-feeder outlets. And even before it appears on this blog. Content is still king in the media industry and this is the place to get it. And if you think that’s a load of waffle, try having a look at some of the comments that you can find here. Just scroll down when you get there.

I would buy that Joe. You are the best source for info in F1 and I appreciate that you do not deal in silly rumors! When you postulate you always have solid information and a well-thought out position to back you up. I’m in.

I understand you have to make a living Joe, but the after race magazine doesn’t interest me, I’ve normally digested everything during the race and anything that isn’t disclosed in the broadcast normally doesn’t surface until the Tuesday or Wednesday. For example the Rosberg failure. Maybe email me some extracts of what you give, but for me I don’t think its worth reading something that I’ve just seen. You also say you give news updates, but week days I’m busy and having breaking news a few hours or a day before other sites won’t make me look, I catch up when I can so sometimes what I read is a few days old anyway. I wish you all the best and I do enjoy reading your posts time to time.

Very interesting, unfortunately I’m too poor atm to even go for a gp+ subscription, tho I do plan to remedy that once my financial situation improves, whenever that is… *hopefully* in time for the new season.

Just one thing, is there some reason I’m not understanding why the BoM annual sub is more expensive than the monthly? .. not that it matters to me I guess, I’m just curious 😀

Love your blog. I don’t always agree with you, but respect and value your insights. Have you considered soliciting “site supporters” as David Emmett does over at motomatters.com (a site I support). I would be happy to support your blog in a similar manner. Thanks.
